There are various Perks available in Evil West where some stand the best if you are looking for a certain kind of build for use in combat.

Evil West Perks Guide

The perks listed below are the best for combat, making your character powerful and fun to fight against enemies.

Best Gauntlet Perks

Below we have listed all the best Perks in the Gauntlet:

Pump Jack

In the early stages of your gameplay, you might not overlook unlocking health Perks as most fights might seem manageable. However, as you progress in the game, enemies will become much tougher and deal significantly high amounts of damage per hit. This is where perks like Pump Jack along with other health Perks in the Gauntlet should be your number one priority when looking to get the best unlocked Perks.

Dealing damage with the Gauntlet will reduce the cooldown of the Healing Dispenser if you unlock and equip Pump Jack.

On The Spot

This Perk gives you a 15% chance of the enemy dropping Health Pickup when you hit their weak spot. Another invaluable Perk that can provide you with a healing item occasionally as you continue the battle with all sorts of enemies. Just make sure to hit their weak spots as that is what will give you the chance to get a healing item.

Vital Superpowers

A self-explanatory Perk that increases max health by 15%. Considering how tough the enemies will become in the long run, having as many powerful health Perks is the way to go.

Life Support

What is good about this Perk is that it will slowly regenerate health, where it will now take just 90 seconds to charge the entire Health bar.

Best Zapper Perks

If you are looking for the best attacking Perks, you will find them in the Zapper Perk Tree. We have listed below some of the best Perks that you can unlock in this tree:

Short Circuit

A Perk that you should immediately look to equip is Short Circuit. This perk yields an Energy Pickup when you kill an electrocuted enemy, but does not work in Supercharged Mode. Energy pickups are always important when you want to charge up your ultimate ability, allowing you to produce a devastating attack on the enemies.

Wireless Transmission

Combo punches are great, but they can also deal more damage with each of the next three melee punches thanks to this perk. To trigger this move, you need to kill an enemy with E-Combo, and let the damage with each punk do the work for you.

E-Punchline

Looking to make your combo attacks even more powerful? This perk adds a strong explosion around the end of an E-Combo. Paired with the Wireless Transmission Perk, you can imagine what sorts of damage you will be dishing out to each target.

Slam the Fam

This Perk is already a good one to have but paired with the Wider Audience perk, you can launch up and slam multiple enemies at once.

Supercharged Mode

Another really powerful Perk to unlock and use, considering how it gives you a massive advantage for 7 seconds. The Perk amplifies damage dealt and reduces damage received. It will completely wipe out smaller targets but also eat up massive chunks of the health of larger enemies.

Supercharge Blast

Best for crowd control but also to deal damage to multiple targets as you go to them, this Perk releases a shockwave that is released when in Supercharged mode, dealing damage to all nearby enemies.

Very Very Frightening

This is a good Perk to have when you are in Supercharged mode. The perk spawns lightning bolts that randomly damage enemies.
